Hi,
i have configured simple windows event logging using NetXMS agent nad XML file:


<parser>
<file>*Application</file>
  <rules>
    <rule>
      <level>1</level>
      <match>(.*)</match>
      <event params="1">100002</event>
    </rule>
</parser>


In my Event in Event Template, with message: %1

After I do have some Alarms generation in Event Processing Policy with message %m , etc.

Question is, how can I get more data from Windows Event Log - I am missing "Source" and "Event ID" from Event Log.
Which parameter it is (I have tried %2 and %3 in my Event template but does not work), so how to pull this info into the NetXMS server also?

Thank you

Hi!

Starting with version 1.2.14 agent appends event source, event ID, and event severity to NetXMS event. Actual position depends on number of capture groups. For example, for rule defined as


    <rule>
      <level>1</level>
      <match>(.*)</match>
      <event params="1">100002</event>
    </rule>


(with 1 capture group) source will be available as %2, event ID as %3, and severity as %4.

Best regards,
Victor
